Apparatus for generating an inhalable medium

A method of generating an inhalable medium using an apparatus comprising a container for holding a liquid, a heater for volatizing the liquid, and a receptacle for receiving material, the method comprising:

• volatizing, using the heater, liquid held in the container to generate a flow of at least one of a vapor or an aerosol;
• heating, using the heater, material received in the receptacle;
• and
• mixing one or more constituents of the material with the flow of at least one of a vapor or an aerosol to produce the inhalable medium.

A cartridge for use with an apparatus for generating an inhalable medium, the cartridge comprising:

• a container for holding a liquid;
• a heater for volatizing liquid held in the container to generate a flow of at least one of a vapor or an aerosol in use;
• and
• a receptacle for receiving material;
• wherein the receptacle is located adjacent to the heater such that in use, material received in the receptacle is heated by the heater, and wherein one or more constituents of material received in the receptacle in use are mixed with the flow of at least one of a vapor or an aerosol in use to produce the inhalable medium.

An atomizer for use with an apparatus for generating an inhalable medium, the atomizer comprising:

• a heater for volatilizing liquid to generate a flow of at least one of a vapor or an aerosol in use;
• and
• a receptacle for receiving material;
• wherein the receptacle is located adjacent to the heater such that in use, material received in the receptacle is heated by the heater, and wherein one or more constituents of material received in the receptacle in use are mixed with the flow of at least one of a vapor or an aerosol in use to produce the inhalable medium.
